- The spirit of the forest sleeps within its white birch trees, but one day the horrifying power there may awaken. Villagers can only pray, and hope that it will find the shrine and be merciful.

- The active player is the first one who has to decide which of his units leave the battle. He makes all his decisions at this time. Then the choice goes around the table, once, in turn order. [l5rinfo, 7/15/99] Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 16

Rules Q&A
- Q: Okay, here's the deal:
We're in a battle, and I play the terrain "Awakening Shakoki Dogu", which reads:
"All units at this battle return to their fiefs, bowed. All remaining units lose -2 Chi until the end of turn and are dishonored."
My question: What remaining units?
A: Check the errata at http://l5r.alderac.com/rulings/ . The first sentence of this card should read, "All units at this battle MAY return to their fiefs, bowed." [emphasis added] Jeff Alexander, "post for 15 January 2003", 16 Jan 2003
